Donald Joseph Marquez, 47, was a Chicago Police patrolman killed while serving a warrant on March 18, 2002. Marquez and his partner, Patrolman Anthony Mejia, went to 2451 North Avers Avenue to arrest 77-year-old Henry A. Wolk for multiple building code violations after a Housing Court judge signed an order authorizing custody. Officers broke down Wolk’s door after he refused to open it; Wolk fired a .22 caliber pistol through the doorway, striking Marquez twice. Marquez was not wearing his bulletproof vest and died of his wounds at the hospital on March 19, 2002. A shootout lasting about ten minutes followed, and Wolk was shot and killed by backup officers.

Marquez was a 20-year veteran of the department and was survived by his wife, two sons, three daughters, a grandson, his parents, and two sisters. His death was classified as a line-of-duty death and his name appears on several memorials. Does anyone have additional details about that warrant service or the events at the Avers Avenue address?
